Liebster Award

I have been nominated for the first time for a Liebster Award. Thank you so much Elizabeth! I must say that I was so surprised that I clicked on the link twice to be sure it was really me! I really love Elizabeth's blog, Elizy Art Crochet, it is really inspiring, so I am even more pleased that she has nominated me.

I wasn't sure about what to do, but now I know that I should list 11 random facts about myself, answer the 11 questions asked by the person who nominated me, nominate 11 blogs with less than 200 followers and ask 11 questions. I am going to cheat a little and nominate only 5 blogs.

So here we go, 11 random facts about me:

1. I am a Scorpio.

2. I get cranky if I don't have coffee in the morning.

3. I have a sweet tooth and really love chocolate.

4. I love hot and sunny summer days.

5. I was 24 years old when I saw snowing for the first time.

6. I would love to see the northern lights.

7. I failed my driving test three times.

8. I know the price of everything I buy.

9. I used to dress all in black in my youth, but now I absolutely love colors!

10.I love documentaries.

11.I would really love to travel around the world for a year.

These are my answers.

1. What is your favorite day of the week?

Saturday, definitely.

I would like to be an eagle, soaring high above in the sky.

3. What is your favourite song?

This is very difficult to answer, but I really like Bach and Mozart.

4. If you were President/Prime Minister for a day, what would you do?

Here in Portugal, I would really have a full agenda, I think one day definitely wouldn't be enough!

5. What are you afraid of?

A massive earthquake, like the great earthquake that devastated Lisbon in 1755.

6. If you could speak another language (that you don't already know) which would it be?

German. I had German classes for a year a long time ago, but never got beyond the basic.

7. What craft do you want to learn but have never tried?

Tunisian crochet.

8. Which country do you most want to visit?

Mozambique.

9. If you had a day all to yourself completly free of responsibilities and things to do, what would you do?

I would spend the day strolling around with my husband, just going wherever we wanted, without planning.

10. Do you have any bad habits?

I used to be a heavy smoker in my youth, but gave it up before getting pregnant of my first child. Now my worst habit is chocolate.

11. If you could go back in time and witness a famous historical event, which would it be?

I would like to be in 16th century Lisbon, when it was one of the most cosmopolitan cities in the world.

My questions are:

Hi Ana, also here my congratulations to your first award! How wonderful. I love your blog as well :-). It’s a big honour that you nominated me, many thanks again! When I look at your 11 facts, I see we have several things in common, e.g. being a Scorpio and loving documentaries. And the same about colors: When I was younger I also loved to wear all black in black, but since some years I’m totally addicted to colors, they make life so cheery :-)
